Letter to Julia 20120609

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

**It's still the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show marathon on Shadowplay TV**

Hello again, my beautiful young princess Julia.  How are you feeling?  It certainly is hard on the nerves, being the center of attention.  Yet so many people crave fame.  You are not like other women, because of your great beauty, your connection with me, and your Islam.  InsyaAllah, once we are together, you can hide behind me, and I will absorb all those flashing lights and all those bug-eyed stares for you.  You are my girl, and I am very protective of you.  You must be patient, and pray.  Pray that Allah brings us together soon, in security and happiness.  You must be patient, because patience overcomes despair.  It is the purpose of your enemies to put you in despair: they will try to intoxicate you, scrutinize you in order to amplify your despair.  Don't let them.  Be patient, and pray.  Your patience is from Allah.  We need Allah.  Allah can save us, and make the actions of evil into their despair.  And when we are together insyaAllah, I will distract them from you.  Meanwhile, if you are not working, don't seek them out.  Just hide in your home.  When you are alone and lonely, read a little bit of the Qur'an out loud.  Just a little bit: whether it be a random page or in sequence doesn't matter.  Then compare it with what happens to you that day.

Ah, your home.  I pray that Allah gives me the means to build a house for you soon.  In the meantime, I'm working on a plan, and I hope you are thinking about your house too.  I forgot to mention that the north and south sides of the house are longer than the east and west sides.  The front door should be on the north.

Please be patient Julia, and take good, loving care of yourself, because I love you.
